The Global Wave Conference

Our very own Matthew Morey will be speaking next week at the Global Wave Conference in Santa Cruz. Last month we launched the Endangered Waves mobile app, which was awarded Best Conservation App in HeroX’s Big Ocean Button Challenge, sponsored by XPRIZE. Matt will be talking about how organizations can use technology to affect change. The app’s goal is to mobilize the 30 million plus surfers to monitor their own coastlines and surf spots globally, using a smart phone’s camera technology to document threats to surfing spots and coastlines. Matt will be joined by an incredible lineup of speakers including Chris Malloy, Greg Long, Guy Kawasaki, Liz Clark, Dr. Sylvia Earle, Dr. Serge Dedina and many more – all tackling the world’s most challenging ocean issues. Check out the case study for the Endangered Waves App.
